The NROTC Program was established to educate and train qualified young men and women for service as commissioned officers in the unrestricted line Naval Reserve or Marine Corps Reserve. As the largest single source of Navy and Marine Corps officers, the NROTC Scholarship Program fills a vital need in preparing mature young men and women for leadership and management positions in an increasingly technical Navy and Marine Corps.

The mission of University of Florida NROTC Unit is to prepare Midshipmen mentally, morally, and physically for service as commissioned officers in the United States Navy or Marine Corps. We will strive to instill in these future officers the highest ideals of honor, courage, and commitment, while ensuring they possess the professional knowledge and personal motivation required for success as Naval Officers.
